Imagined He Had Swallowed
His Teeth,

From tho Buffalo Express.
A short time since man was taken
to one of the hospitals suffering in
tense pain. He informed the doctors
that his home was down in the coun-
try, and that if he should die he
wished to be sent there. The physi-
clans asked him what he supposed
caused the pain. "Why, 1swallowed
my plate and four false teeth while
asleep the other night" was the an
swer. The patient was put upon
liquid food, and all the examinations
made by the medicos failed to locate
the swallo we'd article. The mans sui.
ferings were lessened considerably,
and as test it was decided to give
him q little piece of beafsteak. This
was done, and the poor patient was
writing in agony as soon as he had
swallowed q mouthful. ooh, my
God!" he exclaimed. ''this is killing
me! l know shall die!" and numer.
Gus other such speeches. The physi-
clans and nurses could hardly keep
him in bed. he suffered so much. Again
he broke forth in EXPLANATIONS. This
time he said: "Oh, how l suffer! 1 can
feel the teeth tearing my stomach
apart! Oh" no did not finish until
the nurse opened telegram from his
wife. It read: Found teeth under
bed" The suffering man, who had
swallowed those teeth, cot ap and
dressed, paid his bill and left the hospi.
tai without word. This is only an
illustration of what imagination will
do.

Eau Claire Special: A quarrel between
Edward Richardson Of st. Paul and Frank
Hanson. proprietor Of the Galloway house,
Thursday night the Sd, resulted in the
shooting OF Richardson, who died at
1890, and Hanson may die. The quarrel
occurred in the corridor of the hotel. No

friendly manner in tho hotel office, and
Hanson had offered Richardson a cigar.
Richardson went into tho corridor, and
Hanson a few moments after followed in
response to q call. Several shots were
then heard, and Hanson staggered out
with ball in tho abdomen. Richar dson
had received two balls-one in the head be.
hind the right ear and the other in tho
region of tho heart. Richardson remained
totally unconscious. Hanson could
speak, but would say moth.

Two years ago Richardson, who waa for
merly steward in tho Galloway house, was
divorced from his wife. Hanson married
her and took charge OF the nine.year-old
daughter OF Richardson. The latter had
long been trying to get the custody OF the
child and it il supposed came here with
that object. A travelling man who was in
tho hotel office few feet from the corridor
said he thought Richardson had shot
Hanson and then shot himself. Some say
three shots only were fired and others say
